The San Francisco Giants are one of the most successful baseball teams of all-time and of recent history. The team moved to San Francisco from New York in 1958, and as one of the longest-established baseball teams it’s clear why the Giants have produced more Hall of Fame players than any other team. One of the most storied franchises in all of baseball; the Giants have won the most games of any team in MLB history. The franchise has won 22 NL pennants, played in 19 World Series and won seven titles – a feat that only four other teams have accomplished.

The Giants and their best player in team history, Willie Mays, provided the baseball world with countless memories that will continue to be told by fans everywhere. Probably the most iconic of these moments happened during the 1954 World Series where the Giants faced off against the heavily-favored Cleveland Indians. With the game tied at two runs apiece, the Indians’ Vic Wertz hit a long fly ball to centerfield with runners on first and second. Willie Mays sprinted toward the wall in center field and made a dramatic over-the-shoulder catch that prevented any runs from scoring. The Giants ultimately won the game and the series, but it might not have been possible if not for “The Catch.” With a signed Willie Mays photo, fans and collectors can cement a piece of history within their memorabilia collection forever. Each autographed Willie Mays photo captures the legendary Giants player in iconic moments from his career, including plays that won San Francisco a World Series title.

Though 1954 season served as the last World Series title for the Giants until 2010, the franchise was not deprived of talent and excitement. In 1993, the Giants made a splash when they signed free agent Barry Bonds to serve as the face of the franchise. Bonds responded by hitting 46 home runs, scoring 129 runs and batting in another 123, all of which were career highs. With Bonds the Giants impressed followers by producing a 103-59 record, but the team failed to reach the playoffs after losing its last game of the season to the Los Angeles Dodgers. A win against the Dodgers would have forced a one-game playoff against the Atlanta Braves. In 1996, Bonds continued to accumulate individual records as he became just the second member of the exclusive 40-40 club when he hit 42 home runs and stole 40 bases.

In 2002, the Giants retooled around Bonds, who had another MVP season with 46 home runs and 110 RBI, and made a run into the postseason. San Francisco beat Atlanta in the divisional series and later took down the St. Louis Cardinals in the National League Championship Series, which set up a trip to the World Series against the Anaheim Angels. Despite being up three games to two in the series, the Giants could not capitalize in key moments and the Angels came back to win the series in seven games and claimed the title.

It was during the 2010 season that the Giants would return and prosper in the World Series. The Giants faced off against the Texas Rangers, and behind the stellar pitching of Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain won their first title since 1954. After being unable to defend their 2010 title, the Giants emerged in 2012 as a team to be reckoned with. Catcher Buster Posey had one of the best seasons in team history and was named NL MVP while the team made its run in the postseason. After beating the Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals, San Francisco faced off against the Detroit Tigers in the 2012 World Series. The Giants dominated the series and swept the Tigers in four games while Pablo Sandoval emerged as the hero and won Series MVP.

The Giants have one of the most storied histories in all of baseball. Across the world, fans proudly wear their Giants gear. After suffering through a World Series drought, San Francisco has become a franchise that is accustomed to winning and that’s why investing in Giants memorabilia is such an easy decision. Any piece of Giants memorabilia would be a great addition to any baseball collection and would also serve as a fantastic way to add historical context to a collection.
